The previews of Kim’s show do not tempt me in the least to tune in. She is giving a driving lesson to her daughter. This is not entertaining. It wasn’t when Luanne did it with her daughter or when Kyle did it with hers. So if this is the best clip, count me out, not to mention the tons of viewers who just hate Kim no matter what and will never tune in to her spin-off. Bravo needs to dut ties with Kim and Kroy.
